I am having issues connecting my Arduino Mega 2560 to my ESP8266 Wifi Shield. The shield demo project has a connection error. When running the serial passthrough project I am able to send data but I receive nothing in response. I have confirmed data is transmitted to the wifi shield because I can change the network name or password and the status light will turn solid if I enter the correct information and will blink if I enter the incorrect information.
I have the UART switch set to SW and have tested for a short between the switch and the pins on the Arduino board to confirm connectivity through the headers. I have the USB connection on the Arduino covered with tape to prevent short circuit between the programming through-holes.
Any other thoughts?
